My instructor was great. He allowed me to use my own equipment, which I brought to ensure I knew how to use, and had me apply scenario problem-solving specific to roofing processes and movement. Great course and it was a good group to work with. The course had a lot of information and training, which while I was aware of some, it certainly helped in my skilling upgrade and awareness. Thank you.
